Alright guys...before ANYTHING i just want to make something clear...in this thread, i am talking about the Earpiece Volume...not the back speaker, not the HEADSET, not the bluetooth...just the in-call EARPIECE volume. sorry if i am coming off kinda rude but the truth of the matter is...every post i go to to search for this particular thing ppl are commenting with DSP Manager suggestions and Volume Hack and Volume+...well NONE of those effect the or can change the EARPIECE volume...just the phone speaker, or Bluetooth or HEadset.
whew.
now that i got that out of my hair lol...can somebody help me with this?i have an Inspire...rooted... with cyanmodgen 7. i did install this one kernel that somebody had out for a volume tweak, but the boost is mostly in my head i think...it was the cm7-inspire-audiofix-r1...
everything abt cyanmodgen7 is amazing...and i think there was a volume boost too from stock sense...BUT i was wondering if there was an app or a system tweak to raise the decibels.
thanks a lot guys! keep up the good work...im what u may call an advanced NOOB lol. so...easy on the words hah!
Do u mean like earbuds or one of those that's wired with built in Mic? Have u tried a pair that have their own volume control dial built in? I have a pair from my old chocolate touch but haven't tried them yet, just trying to throw out some ideas for you.

The only way to truely raise it to make a big difference is in the kernel, which means you'll have to raise it in.the source, then compile it. Ill probably have a cm7 compatible kernel out soon with a big volume boost. I already have one that's pretty loud, next one will be louder

There was no need to start another thread on this but, hell, it seems these days everyone is doin it....Anyway, if volume+ and eq doesn.t work for you, atm you can.t do very much about it, you can either ask for another unit ( i agree the volume is low on sensation, compared to others, but frankly i did manage to get good results with volume+ and eq...) or wait until there will be an unlocked bootloader so that the custom roms can fix this issue (if they can, that is)
hmmm...well atm i think i just wait for the unlocked bootloader as promise by htc to come over.thanx bro...your words make me feel a lil bit release..lol
Volume+ 1.7.3 lets you set it even louder. +10 volume +5 bass and put sound on Good Quality. Makes it louder than my evo. Leave off VR stuff and other, also dont run the separate equalize app it makes the sound lower.

Thanks for that, I couldnt work out for the life of me whats was wrong, I could not get the volume to boost no matter what I tried, I just realised that the Speaker Modifications was enabled and one of the sliders was off default..
Now I got louder ringtones, so thanks for pointing that out..

1.7.3 or 1.37? The volume + im seeing in the market is at 1.37. Who's the dev?
Also i see an eq recommended in this thread, what is the name and developer (or link )

Volume + sound boost ( search ,,volume sound boost,, and there should be an icon with a black volume dial ) and the version is 1.7.3 100%
Equalizer ( as it says )
Volume + has some issues with incoming calls, when it Force Closes and it is quite annoying because you have to press the popup dialog before answering the phone. The developers says it is fixed since 1.7.2 but i still get the error sometimes...
Equalizer on the other hand works for me ( i-ve made a custom profile with all the levels at maximum)

VR gave me louder music but it seemed to lower notifications and ringer a bit. Maybe its just me lol
I purchased the app but I only got 1.7.2, don't see anyway to update it. I also didn't see any difference also, but that may be because I don't have the most updated version. ANY help, advice, direction would be great thanks...BTW I'm on T-Mobile Sensation.
thanks very helpful
I just want to add my 2 cents. The volume suck big time. I'm going to wait until they unlock the bootloader. I sure hope that is issues gets some attention from the gents here at XDA devlopers. Thats my 2 cents

I've seen some threads in the International HOX forum, as well as a new ROM in our forum that support Dolby Mobile.
I'm on Cleanrom, and I don't really want to switch ROMS for an audio effect. I'm definitely curious though.
How can I flash Dolby Mobile onto my HOX without any ROM changes?
What about ALSA? I know MixGet is on the play store, but does it work for anyone?

I mean heres the apk. IMO its just another gimmick like beats. Its just a different equalizer. Seriously just use poweramp or playerpro or even the equalizer app from the play store and set your settings according to your preference. Surround sound is not possible through a 3.5mm stereo jack. At best, you will get virtual surround sound which distorts or incorrectly balances sounds.
Thats my opinion. But you are better off sending a PM to XsMagical and ask him about it since he ported the ROM that contains it.
Yup that I know, a gimmick it is for sure. I wish the HOX had a wolfson dac, or a voodoo-like hack of some sort. Driving larger headphones with higher impendence doesn't quite work well here.
Right now I'm using Google music with DSP manager. I'll occasionally leave beats on while at the gym for the fun of it, usually I'm only using an equalizer though. I just wanted to hear what Dolby could do, never tried it before in my life lol.

Hi,
Some people have ported Beats Audio, xLoud and Mobile Bravia Engine to several of the android phones.
Is it possible to port it to Atrix 2?
Will it really increase the performance?
There are several methods available online..
(A simple google search will show the results... I am not able to post the links as i am a new member)
Have anyone tried it??
Any senior members willing to try this?
-----------------------
P.S:- This is not a Q&A post.. This is meant for discussion of a general topic.

I have installed Beats Audio and it works fine, yes it does increase audio performance. To install Beats Audio you need to root your phone.
I haven't tried xloud and bravia, so I cant comment on that.

For the love of everything even remotely good in life, do not do this. Beats audio and really any other mod are TERRIBLE and degrade audio quality. if what you want is something that drives the base hard and washes everything else out, I suppose it does a damn good job, but it kills audio quality. If you want good performance, buy some decent headphones, nothing less than $100 or so, but you don't need anything crazy, and get a good player with an equalizer like poweramp.

I have never used it, but obviously none of these can change the hardware of the phone, they are basically fancy equalizers. All equipment is different, and that is the main point to equalizers (not to adjust sound for the type of music, the recordings are mixed how the producer intended, but to adjust for different listening hardware. for example, small headphones often need more bass volume to sound good, while large speakers might lack on the low to mid end.) That said, some of these enhancements might improve quality on the device they are intended for, as they can change what is needed to get good sound there.
You can try any of these, and see what you think, as everyone has different tastes, but to get the best quality sound, I would still recommend high quality listening gear, and a good equalizer you can play with to get the sound you want.
I mostly listen with ER6i in ear headphones, which are noise isolating (not electronic canceling), so they block a lot of sound, and have really good quality for in ear headphones. They don't make the same ones any more, but they were around $100, so I'm sure there is a replacement model. I use Poweramp as my player, and it has a 10 band EQ that I tweaked for my headphones to sound best.
Well i have installed all of these and my audio is better..performance is better. From my point of view..it doesnt hurt anything.

Shame on you! Difference of opinion I guess, but my guess is it is still the same as the tv store effect. the brighter the better seeming at fist glance.
Anyways, always feel free to try things out, but make sure you know how to remove them. I made a beats remover that is in the general section somewhere, but they might have updated since then, so no guaranty that it will work.
Beats audio thing was just a screw up. It made the audio quality bad for me. I tried Acid audio engine which worked fine. It did boost the audio quality for me a lil bit !
bravia engine link plz
plz past the bravia engine link
becoz which i found is having some user specific issues
so plz upload the link or bravia engine

Its an equalizer setting to (theoretically) make the speakers sound much better. Harmon Kardon is a high end speaker maker. It essentially does the same thing as the Beats did last year.

We can get it if we change the false setting in the default xml in the system to true BUT it don't think it will effect sound due to not having the libs for it.

They might have been, at one time (debatable). But, HK does nothing but buy other companies any more. They don't develop much of anything, themselves. The bulk of their branding is for high profit margin products like car audio and licensing of mass-consumer level audio tech.
You'd do better with Viper. Almost anything is better than the pre-installed audio enhancements, whether it's Beats, Harman, or whatever.
ive also read it may just be a software thing and not difference in hardware.
do you think viper is significantly better than the boomsound already on the phone?

Viper4Android is a great mod don't get me wrong, a lot went into making this! Personally though after playing with it for literally hours in my car streaming music via BT, i couldn't get 1 setting that i felt was better than stock. Same with "Boomsound" for the external speakers. I'm completely happy with the stock "equalizer" personally. Don't see what this HK equalizer will bring to the table, i bet nothing special. I think HTC actually put a lot of time and energy into their equalizer knowing that Beats left them and this is their next big device since Beats left so they had to make it just as good if not better. I feel they've made it just as good if not better on this device :highfive:

Its definitely just an equalizer setting. They wouldn't have developed entirely different speakers for a carrier variant. Its the same thing as the Beats integration last year, which has now been replaced by BoomSound.
